They don't make anything for that style rear suspension.
He's not running a torque arm - it's a modified 4 link that just a few guys are trying out.

id say go back to a TQ arm type suspension and you'll be fine. do you possibly have that "third mount" you were trying to sell a while back? if so just install that and a spohn tq arm/ lca setup.

You want a poly bushing on one end and rubber on the other. Edlebrock sells an LCA like that.
You need the rubber to absorb the impact at launch, if you have poly's all around there is no give and things will snap.

they should be making them out of heavier wall tubing!
Go for the Pete-Z setup, it works with the stock LCA, which can be boxed.
I can build you Lower control arms that wont break, out of heavier 4130 tubing, and mount the tabs closer to the front of the control arm, so the leverage working to break them is reduced.

If you look at it, it's not a normal LCA. It has that extra tab welded to the top for an additional bar there. It's somewhat like a modified 4 llink setup, there is no torque arm on his car.

Thats not a 4-link, its a ladder bar.
A 4 link has seperate upper and lower links which allow the instant center to be placed at an imaginary point.
the ladder bar has a definite instant center.
